GOLDSTEIN: Trudeau’s policies are killing economic growth, report says

The Trudeau government is stifling Canada’s economic growth, leading to irreparable societal divisions unless the trend is reversed, warns Statistics Canada’s former chief economic analyst.

In an essay for the fiscally conservative Fraser Institute — “What is Behind Canada’s Growth Crisis?” — Philip Cross cites a recent report by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development which “forecasts that Canada’s per capita GDP growth between 2020 and 2060 will be the lowest among its 29 member nations” without fundamental changes in government’s attitude to growth.

Justin Trudeau is a stupid hateful person.

The UN Gets Hot and Out of Control

Weirdos are overheating on climate anxiety this summer.

The UN says that climate change “is out of control” because it was hot on Monday and Tuesday in places where it should be hot this time of year.

I don’t know if climate change is out of control. I’m pretty certain that the UN is out of control.

Tesla Solar Factory Not Living Up to New York’s $1 Billion Investment

In exchange for $1 billion, the state expected 5,000 jobs and 1,000 installations a week. Instead, it reported 1,700 jobs, most of them Tesla data analysts, and 21 installations per week.

This is the type of deal that has Ford and Trudeau salivating.

UN says climate change ‘out of control’ after likely hottest week on record

The UN secretary general has said that “climate change is out of control”, as an unofficial analysis of data showed that average world temperatures in the seven days to Wednesday were the hottest week on record.

“If we persist in delaying key measures that are needed, I think we are moving into a catastrophic situation, as the last two records in temperature demonstrates,” António Guterres said, referring to the world temperature records broken on Monday and Tuesday.

Bremen ‘Fridays For Future’ Disbands After Racism Claims

There appears to be no future for the Bremen branch of the climate change alarmist group “Fridays for Future,” which was originally founded by Swedish climate wunderkind Greta Thunberg in 2018.

On July 3rd, the Bremen Fridays for Future (FFF) wrote on their website that they would be dissolving and accused the German national branch of FFF of being “structurally racist” and claimed that “Black, Indigenous, People of Colour (BIPoC)” people had suffered abuse from other activists with the FFF movement.

‘We had no choice’: The inside story of how Doug Ford gave away billions of dollars to a Corporate welfare case in dodgy EV battery plant deal

‘We had no choice’: The inside story of how Doug Ford finally blinked and spent billions of dollars to save an EV battery plant in Ontario

Carlos Tavares, the canny top executive of auto giant Stellantis, says weeks of crisis talks to salvage a Windsor EV battery plant taught him one thing: Canada’s negotiators move way too slowly in a global green industrial race that’s accelerating at warp speed.

“It was difficult to get this agreement inked at the end of the day,” Tavares said in an exclusive interview with the Star from Portugal, “but it was rewarding.”

Rewarding, no question.

‘Massively expensive’: Canadian Taxpayers Federation takes aim at $15B deal for Windsor battery plant

The $15-billion agreement to keep an electric vehicle (EV) battery plant in Windsor, Ont., is “massively expensive for taxpayers,” says the Canadian Taxpayers Federation.

“These big corporations are getting buckets of cash courtesy of cost to taxpayers while the rest of us get tax hikes,” said Franco Terrazzano, federal director for the Ottawa-based federation.

“We have governments that are choosing to help multinational corporations over taxpayers.”

Gwyn Morgan: Trudeau Liberals are gutting Canada’s economic well-being

Wildfires in Canada and unseasonably high temperatures in Europe are being blamed on climate change, escalating the perceived urgency to “do something” about carbon emissions. In Canada, it seems no volume of emissions is too small to worry about. B.C. taxpayers will soon be paying some $28 million to connect cruise ships docking in Victoria to electric shore power so diesel generators can be shut down. This must set a world record in terms of the cost per unit of avoided emissions.

We’re also on track to establish a coast-to-coast cost record on emissions reductions through ever-rising carbon taxes on motor fuel plus deliberate debilitation of the oil and gas industry — though it contributes the largest share of both GDP and export revenue of any industry.

Hara-Kiri Trudeau Style

Wildfires in Canada and unseasonably high temperatures in parts of Europe are being blamed on climate change, further escalating the frenzied sense of urgency propounded by governments, activist groups and the mainstream media to “do something” about carbon emissions. In Canada, it seems no volume of emissions is too small to worry about. B.C. taxpayers, for example, will be paying an estimated $25 million to connect cruise ships docking in Victoria to electric shore power so the ships’ diesel generators can be shut down. This is surely establishing a world record in the cost per unit of avoided emissions.

Speaking of world records, our country is on also on-track to establish a much larger cost record on emissions reductions – spanning the entire nation – through a combination of ever-rising carbon taxes on motor fuel and deliberate debilitation of the oil and natural gas industry, which contributes Canada’s largest share of both GDP and export revenue.

Quebec gets special deal on carbon tax

OTTAWA, ON: The Canadian Taxpayers Federation is highlighting a fundamental unfairness in Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s carbon tax policy: Quebec is paying a lower carbon tax than the rest of Canada.

“The math is simple: Trudeau is forcing drivers in every other province and territory to pay 14 cents per litre of gas in carbon taxes, while Quebecers pay 10 cents per litre,” Franco Terrazzano, CTF Federal Director, said. “The solution is also simple: Trudeau should scrap his carbon taxes and make life more affordable for all Canadians.”

‘Double agents’: fossil-fuel lobbyists work for US groups trying to fight climate crisis

More than 1,500 lobbyists in the US are working on behalf of fossil-fuel companies while at the same time representing hundreds of liberal-run cities, universities, technology companies and environmental groups that say they are tackling the climate crisis, the Guardian can reveal.

Lobbyists for oil, gas and coal interests are also employed by a vast sweep of institutions, ranging from the city governments of Los Angeles, Chicago and Philadelphia; tech giants such as Apple and Google; more than 150 universities; some of the country’s leading environmental groups – and even ski resorts seeing their snow melted by global heating.

What a scam.

As Canada faces wildfires and smoke, is it ready for climate migrants?

The air in several major Canadian cities on Monday smells like burning campfires.

Air quality has plummeted during recent weeks because of wildfire smoke, made worse by the adverse effects of climate change in an “unprecedented” fire season. But as Canada battles environmental emergencies, advocates are asking if the country is ready to play its part in a global crisis of climate migrants.

Hey Frankie Champagne! How much did this tongue bath cost the tax payer?

PARIS — At the Paris Air Show, under the piercing roars of fighter jet demos, Canada’s silver-haired, Canali-clad industry minister sells one executive after another on an unexpected pitch: Amid global disorder, boring is best for business.

“When everything is high risk, you go to Canada and it’s very stable and predictable. It’s very attractive,” said François-Philippe Champagne, a U.S.-educated corporate lawyer turned politician and now Ottawa salesman, zipping between air show meetings in a golf cart.

WTF? Frankie is being praised for being even more stupid with tax payer dollars than Americans.

Canada is paying ‘an enormous price’ for the Volkswagen battery plant. Is it worth it?

Auto industry analysts say Canada paid a big price to bring Volkswagen’s first North American electric vehicle (EV) battery plant to St Thomas, Ont., but whether that money will deliver lasting benefit to the economy is a matter of debate.

On Wednesday, parliamentary budget officer Yves Giroux released a report detailing his calculations.

Giroux said it would cost the public at least $16.3 billion to build the plant, $2.8 billion more than the federal government first announced in April because of the differences in U.S. and Canadian corporate tax rules. It’s expected production at the plant will start in 2027.

Alberta, Saskatchewan, Atlantic Provinces Join Forces Against Ottawa’s New Fuel Regulation

Ottawa’s new fuel regulation doesn’t sit well with six provinces, as Alberta becomes the latest member to join forces with Saskatchewan and Atlantic Canada to oppose the new measure that came into force on July 1.

Two days before the Clean Fuel Regulation (CFR) was enforced, Alberta’s Minister of Environment and Protected Areas Rebecca Schulz wrote to federal Minister of Environment and Climate Change Steven Guilbeault, calling on his government to “immediately halt” the implementation of the new policy.
